Quoting: Liam Dawe

Quoting: d10sfanI heard reports from people saying that running the game offline (as in no internet connection) will cause the game to not boot, but once the game starts you could play offline. Has that changed?

That has not been the case in my testing. Plays fine. Gives 2 or so errors in-game which you skip, as the errors are about multiplayer. Solo offline works fine.

Ah gotcha, thanks! I'll probably give it a go soon then

Quoting: d10sfanI hope that they eventually support fully offline play, as you currently have to launch the game connected to the internet.

You don't. Valve's notice on the Steam Deck certification is wrong. It plays just fine offline solo.

Not being able to boot the game offline makes the game much less appealing, especially on a steam deck.

A shame that they went with Paradox, they release way too many dlcs, and their recent releases have been pretty lackluster.

Sadly looks like it's not going to be updated for native Linux. Looks like another dev that decided to drop support.

I don't mind playing with Proton, but game devs imo should keep all platforms they claim to support up to date, or at least remove the linux icon if the game isn't up to date.

This also causes confusion for steam deck players, since Valve has set the native version for the steam deck. Now they will probably need to update that to use proton instead for customers to get the actual game.

Hopefully the GUI will also be supported, since they just mentioned the CLI in the quote.

Feels like any good will they had with the community is gone with their recent bad decisions. This is a decent walk-back, but requiring people to be online to use the editor is annoying.

I hope people continue to use open source solutions like Godot in the future

I could add this to luxtorpeda-dev if there's interest

That's a shame, for that game probably means a ton more dlc like what happened to prison architect
